In the study, researchers looked at about 1,900 schoolchildren in China. Th
25、e scientists found that the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop near-sightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors. Moreover, among the kids who did become near-sighted duri
26、ng the study, the degree to which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors. In the study, the researchers selected six schools and required the children, whose average age was 7 at the start of the study, to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoo
